The Download button does not hang anymore , it says now "Cache version missmatch" instead and the crating button appears

This is a hard one.

Technically it's possible to merge caches that aren't the same version as long as they are version 10 and up.

However there are cases where this won't work and I don't want to break the caches.

I don't know a solution to that now.

The best thing would be to leave that untouched.

I'll pin this issue for a discussion basis.

As you already stated some information about that in your repository, it would be nice if you could elaborate more about this here and give an opinion about merging different cache versions.

After the new DXVK release with v15 cache, my idea is to upload the upgraded ones (v10 -> v15) and upload any new and that's it. It would be great to also have support for v10 in the same cache to support older DXVK releases but that would result in a bigger cache plus it could be complicated and there could be some bugs along the way./edit: and also have support for merging different versions

So the simplest thing you can do is: rename v15, download v10, run the game and close it, after that you should be able to merge them (v15+15). Maybe add info about it in the app or info + run the game if it's from Steam and close after a few seconds then merge but that might be hard to do.

EDIT: Apparently, updating v10 to v15 can cause crashes, so creating new caches is the best option.
